Interesting

We found wireless access at a pizza shop and bakery in Powell River so I thought I'd type a little. We came into Westview marina in a storm with 15 + winds and the slip we were supposed to have was occupied so we grabbed what we could and helped shoehorn a sail boat from Comox in front of us. I hate landings in high winds, but we have recovered. Hunger and the prospect of internet access will do a lot for your humor. We find we are hungry frequently, aboard the boat, and when we tie up or anchor we are ready for a nap. We had a great time with the Ruggles and hated to leave them, but we would not leave Princess Louisa until Wednesday and we are concerned that we keep moving north on days we can. It is an interesting feeling to be in waters we have not navigated before - a new cruise every day. People are very nice and helpful. I just have not gotten the hang of Canadian currency, yet. It is good to be on land for a while, but the darn stuff keeps moving. Tomorrow we head for a nice cove to anchor in and swing for a while. We won't be checking in for a couple of days. They don't have wireless internet connections in the places we anchor. Imagine that. We send out good thoughts to Jim, who just had a triple bypass. Heal fast and come boating with us. Everyone, keep us in your thoughts and keep in touch. We get email now and then and would love to hear from you. Our cell phone generally work very well up here. As it gets less populated the connection will probably be more infrequent. We think of all of you often.
